I Also like to see the situation from Austria's point of view :) I like how he is also portrayed being troubled, so it's not a black and white world, but he is suffering too. Your writing is really enjoyable! Also, poor Austria about the Holy Roman! But he did some pretty bad things too. Hehehe, as I said I really like the moral ambiguity and showing different sides.
Glad OP likes ! I must admit I like writing Austria very much, and it might show in the story. (Also Prussia being a douche is one of the things I absolutely adore doing, because damn, he's not a nice guy.) I don't have much compassion for Austria, though, because his thinking (in this verse at least) is imperialistic, mysoginistic, anti-democratic and overall horrible. I'm a bit lacking in knowledge when it comes to central Europe and the Balkans, though, so I hope I won't get too many things wrong with the rest. (It's centered around German unification and Bismarckian diplomacy anyway, mainly because I'm a terrible person and Author Appeal.) I didn't know at all about that fact about Polish fighters in Hungary, thank you very much for educating me tonight !
Also, for the HRE!anon before that (I don't want to use too much comment space...) I kinda lost track of most of my Hetalia fic on the meme. I don't remember writing anything centered on Austria's relationship with HRE, even though the idea that he might have been the only person he ever really loved often ends up popping out whenever I write fic about German history one way or another. Mentioning Bavaria and Saxony is a thing I do often too. (Why, why, why don't they have defined canon characters with a proper profile yet ?!!) I think there are some of my fics from a few years back that could somehow belong in the same verse. (The one that comes to mind was with a really naive Germany that thinks about his brothers in the trenches of WWI.) I guess I should dig into the meme and try to post the links with the next update if I find them.
Thank you for your kind comments ! I'll be finishing up the third part hopefully soon enough.
